This is no doubt a nice fine dining restaurant. That said, it is all around American... music, hostess, ambiance, flavours (though mixed with local ingredients). My friend and I had dessert and coffee that was undeniably delicious.
However, if you are looking for Belizean food, experience, conversation, people or feel --- it certainly is not here.

Hi! We truly appreciate you visiting our restaurant for dessert on our very busy Saturday night. I remember seating you personally and ordering your coffees for you. We are a contemporary restaurant with a Caribbean-influenced menu -- I'm very sorry if you had the impression that we served a traditional Belizean menu. Still, even though you seem disappointed, I'm happy...

To find the Maya Beach Bistro here in Placencia was like discovering your favorite restaurant in any major city in the world! Disguised as a sleepy little cafe on the beach, I promise you, this would be a favorite restaurant for my wife and I ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD! We have honestly been shocked by the taste, quality and originality...

Went there for dinner, will be going back for sure. The ambiance was great, service friendly and excellent and the food was delicious. We also went got breakfast and have the same comments for this meal as well. Our dinner was on Thanksgiving, were served, might need to do that on a regular night also.

On our way to the jaguar preserve we stopped to get breakfast to go. Very fresh and the bread was amazing.
We returned for diner and oh my gosh. My wife had the snook special that was one of the best things I've ever eaten, I had to steal some bites.
My daughter 18 had the grilled cheese and loved...

We had one lunch and one dinner there the first week in Placencia, will definitely go back our second week. Beautiful setting right on the ocean, simple and tastefully decorated. All the staff are pleasant, happy and helpful in explaining and recommending menu items. The menu is not extensive which indicates they are not trying to be all things to...

This place not only has great scenery right on a secluded beach but the food and service is exceptional for the area. A bit pricy but worth it. Had several breakfast and dinners here and never anything but awesome food.

What a dinner! Best Lobster Ever, hands down! Since the restaurant was full, we ever offered a private room for our party of seven! Try the Blackened Seafood au Gratin and the Lobster Tail. Too bad I had no more room left for their famous Key Lime Pie! And Cedric our waiter presented the menu with a dance and a...

We're certainly far from perfect, but we do try our best to create a winning experience for every single customer, whether they are hotel guests, Belizean neighbors or travelers staying at other hotels. Try pairing small plates with wines, choose from our creative main courses, or just enjoy some comfort food for breakfast or lunch. It's fun for us to meet new people and, well, just make them happy! Our casual beach bistro focuses on unique sauces and contemporary, tropical-themed flavor combinations while maintaining comfortable portions. Lots of fish and seafood. Bar service includes a 130-bottle wine list, local beer, rum drinks, and house specials. The outdoor atmosphere is casual so you can be comfortable in flip flops. Belize's "Restaurant of the Year" award was presented twice to the Bistro in June 2011 and May 2013.
